Review by LukaŽiga
7,8:On the nose, the first impression we get is that vanilla dominates, supported by the secondary aromas of caramel and almond, honey. Woody notes and some spice, leather, with a faint of fruitiness underlie but remain discreet. 8:On the palate, the attack is soft and sweet notes become increasingly present. Caramel and wood take over, with vanilla receding into the background, there are some sweet spices, whisky notes, roasted nuts, faint fruits. 7,8:The finish is long, dry, with the same sweet, slightly woody, roasted notes, caramel and vanilla. Tasty, but lacks the ABV for more depth...

Oliver · FounderBy rum lovers, for rum lovers
I'm Oliver, and RumX began in 2018 as a small passion project in Stuttgart, back then under the name Rum Tasting Notes.
What began as my digital tasting diary is now the world's most comprehensive platform for rum fans, today carried by a small team with Jakob, Lukas and Katharina, with Robert supporting us as a freelancer. We combine the collective intelligence of our community with an integrated marketplace, so you can choose with confidence, without paperwork, detours, or expert jargon.
